I was so disappointed to get AF 5 weeks after my DD was born. One of the added bonuses (or so I thought) would be no AF for some time. Alas I'm not so lucky, and having spoken to my Sister and Mum when mine arrived, it seems like it's all in the family.
At least by looking at the poll, I'm not the only one.
Cheers,

I was so interested to read all the above. I have just stopped breastfeeding my son (who turns 1 this coming week). I have STILL not got my period back....I guess I should be happy :)
Well i got mine back today ](*,) I really thought that it stayed away until you stop bf, so how stupid am i #-o
I was wondering why i had the cramps and i've been in a fowl mood for a week.
7 weeks on the dot & on Mother's Day too ](*,)
AF came back for me around 6 months when dd was not having as many breast feeds. Can you believe I actually missed it..

I haven't got mine yet, but I think I'm ovulating..I am still breastfeeding round the clock and I have an IUD in so my influence things..;)
Mine came back today 6wks 6 days after having Alexander.
My period returned 2 days ago despite breastfeeding, so 7 weeks, 5 days after Birth.
Take Care

exactly 2 months to the day after birth
With my first, my period didn't come back at all - after two years of breastfeeding I fell pregnant with my second. Elijah is now 8 months and I know I am ovulating, but no period! Yeah I know, call me a cow! :) I'm just glad it's not something else I have to deal with right now!! :)
Not sure with Nyah, but William was 8 mths and Im 2 days late for AF now, if I am going on reguar cycles, Im normally 28 days exactly, so I'll wait another week then test.
6 months...
AF turned up on Saturday - Exactly 11 weeks post birth. So annoyed!!! I am breastfeeding every 2 hours day and night apart from a 4 hour break when Hannah has her not-so-big "big" sleep.
With DD2 I breastfed for 12 months, AF came when she was 10 months. So 10 months of no AF! I finished b/f DD1 at 6 months and AF came a month later.
Still nothing 8-[
If you don't include post-natal bleeding, I haven't had a period in 4.5 years 8-[ :confetti:
That's awesome, Kelly!
Mine came back properly last month because I cut right down on my BFing. I had some spotting the previous two months but I don't count that as full-blown AF. I also felt ovulation pains last month like I have never felt before! I told DH to stay away from me!! LOL ;)
That's awesome Kelly, you lucky girl!!
I stopped BFing about 4 weeks ago and haven't had anything yet - but I think they're on their way.....
